    Posted by Kurt Murphy on November 5, 2007 at 7:49 pm

    I hope someone can help me…. I’m trying to get some 3D models that I created in Zaxwerks Invigorator into a Chron Lyric. Chyron can accept 3ds files. I can export from Invig to a 3ds file format, but the Chyron gives me an error “can’t define mesh objects.”

    I then imported the Invig objects into Cinema 4D and exported as a 3ds, but I still get the same error. What can I do in Cinema to make them right?

    thanks,

    Kurt, I have successfully put c4d generated 3ds files into lyric, but never with Invigorator in the pipline.
    So the short answer is… try an experiment with c4d only generated models and see if that works. I couldn’t begin to guess what the difference would be. Also try removing all texture maps from your models. Its my experience that Max is the only 3d app that successfully transfers the textures with the 3ds model. Let us know your results please…and good luck
